Compliance with the facts of geology
Legend Sangkuriang accordance with the facts of geological creation of the Lake and Mount Tangkuban Parahu Bandung.
Recent geological studies indicate that the remains of an ancient lake was 125 thousand years old. The lake dried up 16,000 years ago.
There has been two eruptions of ancient Mount Sunda with the type of Plinian eruption respectively 105 000 and 55000-50000 years ago. The second Plinian eruption has broken down the ancient caldera of Mount Sunda thus creating Mount Tangkuban Parahu, Mount Burangrang (also called Mount Sunda), and Mount Bukittunggul.
It is quite possible that people have occupied the ancient Sundanese highlands Bandung and watched the second Plinian eruption that swept the settlements west Ci Tarum (north and northwest of Jakarta) during the period of eruption at 55000-50000 years ago when Mount Tangkuban Parahu created from the remnants ancient Mount Sunda. This period is the time Homo sapiens; they have been identified living in southern Australia at 62,000 years ago, during the Java Man (Wajak) about 50,000 years ago.
Sangkuriang and Philosophy Sunda
According to Hidayat Suryalaga, legend or sasakala Sangkuriang intended as a light illumination (Sungging Perbangkara) for any human (cariang plants) are still undecided in the existence of himself and eager to find the identity of humanity (Wayungyang). The results obtained from this quest will give birth to your heart (conscience) as the real truth (Dayang Sumbi, Rarasati). But if not accompanied with caution and full awareness / mindfulness (binoculars), then he would be dominated by a sense of indecision and digagahi constant (digagahi the Tumang) who will give birth to a selfish ego-ego, the soul that has not been enlightened (Sangkuriang ). When the Conscience consumed again by kewaswasan (Dayang Sumbi eat the heart of the Tumang) then it's gone the true consciousness. The experienced remorse Conscience acted with arrogance he hit ratio The Ego (head Sangkuriang beaten). Arrogance is also affecting "the Ego Ratio" to stay away and leave the conscience. The arrogance of ego turns ratio of the fatigue-weary search of knowledge (intellectual intelligence) during the wanderings in the world (heading East). In the end back to the west that is consciously or unconsciously always sought and longed that the Conscience (Sangkuriang Meeting with Dayang Sumbi).
However it turns out the union between the Ego Ratio (Sangkuriang) with The Conscience of the enlightened (Dayang Sumbi), not as easy as expected. Armed with knowledge that has mastered the Ego Ratio (Sangkuriang) should be able to make a social life based on compassion, interdependency - reparation and penance refining compassionate humanist foster harmonious social life of one lake (make Talaga Bandung) who inhabited the various collection people with a wide variety of temperament (Citarum). Meanwhile, the integrity of identity must be formed also by the ratio of the ego itself (boat building). The existence of the Ego ratio that was not apart of history itself, there is the origin of the principal (the Mount of stumps, trees sajaratun) since from the beginning it exists (the east, where rises early life). The Ego ratio must also indicate the existence of himself (tutunggul, penada themselves) and eventually she will have offspring that manifest in a society that will datangd and swallowed a period of time it's over to a pile of bones (mountain Burangrang).
What a pathetic, if it is the hope for unification of the Ego Ratio to the enlightened conscience (almost happened with Dayang Sumbi Sangkuriang marriage), failed because the trigger is present the final point, the end of life contained entity (boeh rarang or shroud).Finally twist of fate that befell the Ego Ratio which is just feeling extremely sorry and angry at "him". Then kicked her selfishness ratio, be a piece of transcendental human face lament misfortunes that befell him (Mt Tangkubanparahu).
However because of the Ego Ratio still feel curious, pursued an enlightened conscience continue the dream itself (Dayang Sumbi) in hopes of a unified yield ratio between the ego with the Conscience. But it was the conscience of the enlightened only appeared to be a witness for the behavior that has ever happened and experienced the Ego Ratio (interest Jaksi).
End of story is, when the arrival of consciousness conceit expiration ratio (Ujungberung).With his consciousness too, lifted and threw stoppers arrogance dominance ratio (mountain Manglayang). So now it opens a channel of polite communication process with anyone (Sanghyang Tikoro or throat; Sundanese: Hade fried my way my way). Correctly and carefully guarded the entrance of food into his mouth to keep it clean lawful and beneficial.
